Looks like the Cougars have this one. Up 35-10 in the 4th, with the ball.

We're having our first party in the new digs tonight. I'm making carnitas, Swedish meatballs and mini smoky links in the crescent roll thingies. Well, not really. My wife is doing the mini links things. I've no patience for that job.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

Daughter is coming home from UNL this afternoon

She asked me to make my competition chili for her and the boyfriend

Headed to the casino this morning for a couple hours of swing practice on the golf simulator.  Gotta stay loose, my annual trip to Texas to visit my brother and play some golf is coming up

Wife's mom & stepdad are down from Oregon. We're doing Christmas day with them, but only have the kids until Christmas morning, so we're having them over for dinner.

I'm going to smoke beef short ribs all day. Wife will be baking Christmas cookies most of the day. She'll make bruschetta as an app, and Brussels sprouts and roasted potatoes as a side. Should be a solid meal!

I've decided that my brother's Xmas gift will be a trip to Louie Mueller's in Taylor for a beef rib next month.

You have to appreciate the Ohio turnpike still having lane closures due to construction with no construction workers present on the weekend before Christmas I'm probably the busiest travel day of the year.  They always make you earn their wonderful rest stops

Army drops 70 damn points on Houston. Very nice.

Four passes for 85 yards. 58 carries for 500-plus and eight TDs.

I'd tell you it's their way of keeping traffic moving safely but they're not that forward thinking.Still like it better than PA. - I thought i was going thru Transylvania,didn't stop to take a leak as I thought I'd run into Vlad

Did Houston even scout Army's offense?   Or was it a case of, if Ed's not playing, we're not playing?

There's a place in town that sometimes does beef ribs and did so today.I abstained because I've eaten poorly all week, and project to eat poorly all next week.
I think that makes me a quitter and I will wear that shame.

I want to say many things defending the voracity of the triple, and I still hold to all that.
But Houston did fire its DC a few weeks ago and seems bad at getting punched in the nose. Granted, giving up a record-tying number of points in a bowl might have Applewhite's job in jeopardy, so that's interesting. 
Hat tip to Rodger Sherman for writing "More Army was motivated to hang 70 points on Houston because Houston's coached by a guy with the audacity to call himself "Major Applewhite" without serving. Stolen valor"

It is definitely my favorite part of the state. I'm not an urban football player though.
Damn, I had you pegged wrong this whole time!

I'll defend or promote Army's offense any day of the week.  UH looked wholly unprepared and outmatched.  Army was a high confidence play bit it shouldn't have been +56.

When are the bowls going to stop tricking us into watching WAC-level football?  Can it be the 29th yet?
